P. 119

Allah has helped you on many occasions, including the Day of
            Hunayn when your great numbers delighted you but did not help
            you in any way, and the earth seemed narrow to you for all its
            great breadth, and you turned your backs. Then Allah sent down
            His serenity on His Messenger and on the believers, and sent down
            troops you could not see, and punished those who did not believe.
            That is how the unbelievers are repaid. (Qur'an, 9:25-26)

            THEY HOLD FAST TO THE QUR'AN
            And remember the Signs of Allah and the wise words which are
            recited in your rooms. Allah is All-Pervading, All-Aware. (Qur'an,
            33:34)
            So do not obey the unbelievers but use this (the Qur'an) to battle
            against them with all your might. (Qur'an, 25:52)
            Those to whom We have given the Book, who recite it in the way
            it should be recited, such people believe in it. As for those who
            reject it, they are the losers. (Qur'an, 2:121)
            As for those who hold fast to the Book and perform prayer, We
            will not let the wage of the righteous be wasted. (Qur'an, 7:170)
            This (the Qur'an) is a Book We have sent down and blessed,
            confirming what came before it, so that you can warn the Mother
            of Cities (Makka) and the people around it. Those who believe in
            the hereafter believe in it and safeguard their prayer. (Qur'an,
            6:92)
            We have sent down the Book to you with the truth so that you can
            judge between people according to what Allah has shown to you.
            But do not be an advocate for the treacherous. (Qur'an, 4:105)
            It is not right for any human being that Allah should give him the
            Book and Judgement and Prophethood, and then that he should
            say to people, 'Be worshippers of me rather than Allah.' Rather
            he will say, 'Be people of the Lord because of your knowledge of
            the Book and because you study.' (Qur'an, 3:79)
